Robert and the boyz put it nicely in their publicity announcement, so I'll let them do
their own talking...


THE CURE ANNOUNCE RE-SCHEDULED 2008 NORTH AMERICAN 4TOUR SHOWS

AT LAST! WE ARE VERY HAPPY TO ANNOUNCE THE NEW 2008 DATES OF OUR
POSTPONED NORTH AMERICAN 4TOUR.


EIGHTEEN OF THE NINETEEN PREVIOUSLY ANNOUNCED SHOWS HAVE BEEN
RE-SCHEDULED IN THE ORIGINAL VENUES, AND ALL 2007 TICKETS WILL BE
HONOURED FOR THESE NEW 2008 CONCERTS.

(THE ONLY ONE WE COULDN'T GET SWITCHED WAS SEATTLE... BUT INSTEAD OF NO
CURE SHOW AT ALL, WE WILL BE CLOSING THE SASQUATCH! MUSIC FESTIVAL ON
SUNDAY 25TH MAY (MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND) AT THE GORGE AMPHITHEATRE,
HERE WE HAVE BEEN GUARANTEED 150 MINUTES ONSTAGE! ALL TICKETS FOR THE
ORIGINALLY SCHEDULED CURE KEY ARENA CONCERT WILL BE HONOURED AT THE
GORGE, BUT PLEASE NOTE: ALL TICKETS FOR THE SASQUATCH! FESTIVAL ARE
GENERAL ADMISSION, INCLUDING ANY PREVIOUSLY ISSUED CURE KEY ARENA TICKETS).


IT'S ALL HAPPENING SLIGHTLY LATER THAN WE EXPECTED DUE TO 'THE
PLAYOFFS' - A
LOT OF THE VENUES WE NEEDED WOULDN'T LET US CONFIRM DATES IN THE
MARCH/APRIL PERIOD - BUT WE UNDERSTAND THEY ALL HAVE TO LIVE IN HOPE!


HOWEVER, AN UNEXPECTED BONUS OF THE NEW ROUTING IS THAT WE HAVE BEEN
ABLE TO ADD IN KANSAS CITY, PHOENIX, AUSTIN, FT LAUDERDALE AND

CLEVELAND...
AND THERE WILL BE MORE DATES TO COME!


WE APOLOGIZE AGAIN FOR THE INCONVENIENCE AND UPSET THE ORIGINAL
POSTPONEMENT CAUSED, AND WILL MAKE SURE THAT THE NEW SHOWS ARE MORE
THAN WORTH THE WAIT...


SEE YOU ALL SOON,
LOVE ROBERT, SIMON, JASON AND PORL XXXX (THE CURE)

PS. ANYONE WHO WANTS A REFUND ON THEIR 2007 TICKET WILL BE ABLE TO GET
ONE IN FULL FROM HIS OR HER POINT OF PURCHASE UNTIL 1ST NOVEMBER 2007.
